*6.BIBLE QUESTIONS (10 POINTS)*
IMPORTANT: Make sure your answer is 3 sentences or more:
A. In Genesis 20 we see that Abraham lied in order to take care of a problem. When we face problems or fears, how should we handle them in a God honoring way?
When we face problems or fears,we have to bring it to God in prayer,And trust in his faithfulness.Abraham lied about his wife being his sister which was wrong. A God-honoring way to handle problems is not to deny our fears but to place them in God's hands and act according to His truth.
B. In Genesis 21, we see that God fulfilled his promise to Abraham and Sarah. We can see that God’s timing can be VERY different from our timing. Can you give an example of how we can sin while waiting for God in His perfect timing? What things should we do while we wait for God?
We can sin from impatience,doubt,and trying to make God's promise come according to our human timetable or thinking,which Sarah did when she gave her slave girl Hagar to Abraham to have a child with.
While waiting on the promises of God ,we should always pray,study God's words,trust in his promises and thank him,even when his promises has not manifested.
C. In Genesis 26 we see that God appeared to Isaac. Why did God appear to him and what did he say?
God's encounter with Isaac was to reaffirm his convenant with his father,he also told him not to go to Egypt that where is is he will bless him
This shows that when life feels uncertain, God can provide the direction and reassurance we need. Isaac trusted God's instructions and relied on His promises. In the same way, we are encouraged to trust that God is with us, follow His leading, and remain confident that He will keep His promises, even when circumstances are difficult or unclear.
*7. TRAUMA INFORMED TEACHER (10 POINTS)*
As a counselor, it’s important to remember that children who have experienced trauma need to verbalize that trauma. Verbalizing trauma is important for many reasons.
Students from difficult backgrounds may have come to false conclusions in their own mind. For example, a child who was abandoned may have created a false conclusion that her parents left because she behaved badly. Although this isn’t accurate, the child may have come to this conclusion in an effort to explain something that makes no sense to her. Conclusions like this are a form of self-protection.
A. Students who have experienced trauma may be confused, and if you as the teacher-counselor can understand the child’s perspective, you will be better equipped to support the child and work through the struggles with them. You will also be working from the basis of the child’s thoughts, rather than your own expectations and opinions.
What are some potential conclusions that a child could come to after experiencing different types of trauma. Share 1 idea below.
One of the conclusions a child can come to after trauma is that they are not loveable,That something is wrong with them and that they deserve what they went through.Its important to know this as a teacher counselor so when those thoughts creep in you know what to do.
B. There are some practical steps that you can take to encourage students to verbalize trauma. For example:
- Create an environment of felt safety.
- Build a relationship of trust with the students in your care.
- Be on the lookout for signs of trauma in your classroom.
- Ask questions when you suspect trauma.
- Help a student put words to their feelings.
- Repeat what the student says back to them to make sure you understand clearly.
Students may also be trying to punish themselves for the trauma that occurred. It is important for you as the teacher-counselor to be able to understand this and protect the child from any potential self-harm or self-punishment that may be occurring.
Write a few sentences about why it would be important for you to avoid impressing your own expectations and opinions onto a child who has experienced trauma.
It’s important not to push your own assumptions or expectations onto a child who has gone through trauma because they may already feel misunderstood or unheard. When you listen calmly and without judgment, you give the child space to share their own thoughts and experiences in their own way. This helps them feel safe, valued, and respected. Over time, that sense of safety builds trust and encourages them to open up and begin working through what they’ve been through in a healthier way.
C. PRIVATE JOURNAL: Spend some time thinking about this need to verbalize trauma. Did you experience any traumatic events as a child? Did you have a safe adult to verbalize that trauma to? How could you learn from your experiences and use them to support the children in your care? Don’t post your answer to this question. Leave a comment confirming that you have completed this assignment.
